Engineering Modern Medical Devices The Road from Novel Idea to Commercial Product
Description:
Medical devices save lives, promote health, relieve pain and define a billion dollar industry in the US. Dr. Lawson will introduce the science and technology behind the development of devices such as those used in treatment for migraines and breast cancer surgery. He will challenge the audience to play the role of venture capitalists in consideration of the ethical, economic, social, and legal issues that impact successful product development.
